Default Anyone experience bad suspension install?

I got my h&r sport springs installed about few days ago and I'm hearing some clunking sound coming from the rear.. btw I'm a fwd if that makes a difference. How much damage can the bad install do to my car, TIA

when i installed my springs i had my bro step on the brake caliper....i heard some scraping..it was because the shield was bent and the rotor was scraping it.
